Welcome to Week #43 of WarGamingLive tournaments!
After last week, we decided to increase the threshold for the legendary status, but we would like to hear your opinion first. Basically - the concept of legendary status after 4 wins was introduced somewhere around 15th week of livestreamed tournaments which was 25 weeks ago.. On the other hand, the list is not expanding to fast, so maybe the threshold is ok? feel free to give us your input!

Methods of joining:
I will be making a "Lobby" to test whether or not the participants signed up are active.
The lobby is usually opened around 30 minutes before the actual tournament. The lobby will show up in the open tourney listings. So either you can be invited to it, or join it outright.
The easiest way to join lobby tournament is to post here. You will be included in WGL invite list, and will be invited directly into it.
Even if you post here and get thrown on WGL invite list your spot is not guaranteed.
To be included into the WGL tournament, you have to join LOBBY TOURNAMENT first. Then depending on the number of people interested, we will decide how big the real tournament will be. Usually there are slightly less open spots, than people interested. In that case it will be decided following two rules: the priority to join the tournament will be given to the "regular" participants and legends of WGL. Then the other teams will be invited, and we will use first come - first serve rule - whichever team accepts tournament faster gets in.

FAQs
Q: What happens if we don't get a nice number of people that would make the brackets logical?
A: Everyone who joined the Lobby will be thrown into the actual tournament, if the number of people is greater than the bracket, then it becomes a contest of joining fastest.
Q: Who hosts the stream or tournament if none of the hosts can?
A: Unfortunately no one. This is the reason we went a month only having a single tournament each week. We're always looking for new hosts, though!
Q: I don't have a great voice and speak English terribly, but I do want to help the analysis, how do I do so?
A: Add Mythonian or one of the commentators on Skype. We all have Skype up during the tourney and can get your thoughts conveyed.
Q: I signed up, but I'm not getting invited. Why?
A: Message Mythonian or someone on Skype.
Tournament Results and Player Stats:
Stats are done for some Livestreamed 1v1 Tournaments!
Check them out here:
http://goo.gl/glWHm (choose "1v1s" or "PlayerStats" at the bottom)
Mythonian will be updating them and adding 2v2s and more detailed player stats in the near future.
There is an issue with this: People changing their names won't be automatically detected by the system unless I were to have it refresh with the WarLight servers periodically (which I'd prefer avoid doing), so if you change your name and want accurate stats, TELL ME so I can fix it manually!! (also, this won't group stats from Alt accounts unless you tell me to manually adjust it)
